I'm building an API with Google Cloud functions and I had the same issue as the guy from this post: Could not load the default credentials? (Node.js Google Compute Engine tutorial)
When trying to use my API, I received this error:
Could not load the default credentials. Browse to https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/application-default-credentials for more information.
So I went on and followed the steps suggested in the question I mentioned. I downloaded the gcloud SDK, installed it, and at the end of the installation wizard there is an option to run the google cloud cli immediately.
I ran it successfully and logged in properly, now any time I open the command prompt I can use the gcloud command without a problem.
Mi issue is the following. I'm running my commands in VSCode bash terminal and I get an error saying that the gcloud command is not found.
My project is in my D: drive, and the SDK is on C:, which I believe is the reason why the gcloud command is not recognized when I attempt to use it.
Should/can I install the Google Cloud SDK in my D: drive and use it there, or should I move my project to the C: drive?
I read somewhere that this might be a problem with the bash terminal, but I tried running it from command prompt in VSCode and I get the same error, so I guess it's got nothing to do with it.
Thank you for your time.

I want to run a command prompt and give message to user on specific conditions.
Conditions/ logic is written in google appscript as we are using Gsuite files, is it possible to open my local command prompt and run a command like we do from powershell or vba.
No, in the way you are defining it that feature is not supported in Apps Script.
However, you might have heard of clasp which is a command line interface to develop and manage Apps Script projects from your terminal rather than form the Apps Script editor.
You will be able to manage versions of your projects, run, deploy and create scripts and so on. In this guide you can see an overview of all you can do with clasp. This is the clasp Github repository in case you are interested in taking a further look.
I have a csv file in my google drive.
I'm trying to take it to a google cloud bucket using cloud shell commands.
Anyone can help please?!
Thanks ^-^
There is no a “direct” way to accomplish this, however, there are many workarounds to make this with some extra steps. You could even write and deploy a program on GAE or GCE to do this . But I think the easy way to do this would be download the file to your local machine (with Cloud SDK installed previously) and then upload it with gsutil command [1]:
Input into google cloud shell or your terminal if google cloud sdk is installed:
gsutil cp myfile.csv gs://my-bucket

I have deployed my xampp server to the Google cloud using bitnami tutorial. The next day when I try to access
127.0.0.1:8888/phpmyadmin/
I can't seem to. I initiated ssh using puTTy and I have the welcome page like so. I am getting the "Unable to connect" generic response from firefox. And I am getting "the remote device or resource cannot accept connection" in IE. Is there any way to debug this?
Update: I added the my.cnf file in mysql folder in the cloud. Are the configurations right?
This is my log file image.
Here serverip/xampp/ shows that mysql is deactivated
I have a Google Cloud Platform account that I access from a VirtualBox VM. I am using the Google Compute Engine for a project that I am currently working on, and I had to create a custom image based on the Ubuntu 14.04 image that's available there.
I made changes to the Ubuntu image by ssh'ing into an Ubuntu 14.04 instance, (from my Vbox VM terminal) installing the Matlab compiler runtime, and downloading some other files that I needed. I created the custom image by following the steps according to the documentation.
However, now the changes I made are only available to me when I SSH from my Vbox VM terminal. I need to be able to run a certain matlab program Via startup scripts, how can I make it so that all users using this image have access to the customizations I made? Is there a way I can do this without having to make the edits by ssh'ing from the developers console and redoing all the changes?
EDIT: I don't think I was very clear so Ill give some examples. say my Google account is alexanderlang. When I ssh into an instance created from my custom image from the developers console, bash prompt looks like:
alexanderlang#myinstance $
My Vbox username is alex, and when I ssh into the same instance from my vbox terminal, bash prompt looks like:
alex#myinstance $
alex#myinstance can run matlab programs, but alexanderlang#myinstance cannot. I'm talking about the same instance, created from the same image. I think this might have something to do with the ssh keys for my custom image, but I don't know how to change or remove those keys.
When you connect to your VM instance via ssh by using either Developers Console or gcloud, the user account is dynamically created (if it doesn't already exist) by setting metadata on the VM. The question is: how does each tool choose your username?
When you use Google Developers Console, the only information it knows about you is your Google Account name, so it uses that, e.g., <first-name>_<last-name> or similar.
When you connect to your instance via gcloud, it knows the value of $USER so it uses that instead.
Note that in either case, your account has passwordless sudo access, so if you want to switch from one account to the other, you can run:
sudo su alex
while logged in as alexanderlang and then you have access to all the programs that alex does.
Similarly, you can run:
sudo su alexanderlang
while logged in as alex to do the reverse.
Startup scripts run as root. To run commands as another user, you need to do two things:
change to that username
run commands as that user
sudo su alex will create a new shell and hence ignore the rest of the script (until you manually exit the user shell, which is not what you want).
You can use sudo su alex -c 'command to run' but since what you want to run is a complex script, you need to first save the script to a file, and then run it.
Your options are:
pre-create the shell script to run
dynamically generate it from the startup script
Doing (1) is easy if the script never changes. For frequently-changing scripts (and it sounds like, many dynamically created VMs), you want to use option (2).
Here's how to do this in a startup script:
cat > /tmp/startup-script-helper.sh <<EOF
# ... put the script contents here ...
EOF
sudo su alex -c '/tmp/startup-script-helper.sh'
You can use Packer to create a derived image from a stock GCE VM image. Packer will let you do the following very easily:
boot a GCE VM using an image you specify
run some customization step, e.g., shell script, or Chef/Puppet/etc.
save the resulting image in your Google Cloud Platform project
Then, you can boot any number of new VMs using your newly-created image.
Note that since your VM image will be stored on Google Cloud Storage, you will be charged for the space it uses. Current pricing for Google Cloud Storage standard class is USD $0.026 / GB / month. A typical VM image should be less than 1GB.
You can see a complete example of how I used Packer to build VMs and pre-installed Ambari on it via my GitHub repo.
I'm trying "Click-to-deploy Hadoop on Google Compute Engine" here
Unfortunately this doesn't seems to work : either the process stops almost immediately, or it's like it's frozen.
message displayed is
Deployment may take 3 to 10 minutes to complete, depending on the size of your cluster
Creating deployment
In any case, I can't have any cluster. Tried several zones, Hadoop versions, nothing.
Any thought ?
The problem is occurring because your Cloud project does not have a project id associated with it, but only a project number, which is true for some long-standing Cloud projects.
https://developers.google.com/console/help/new/#projectnumber
You can fix this by going into Developers Console, selecting your project from the project list, selecting Billing & settings from the left-hand navigation, and adding the project id there.
The following URL should take you there directly:
https://console.developers.google.com/project/_/settings
Thanks,
-Matt
A few items to help diagnose the problem:
Go to the Compute Engine instance list and check if there are any instances created for the deployment.
Check if there are any errors raised to the Javascript Console for your browser.
BTW, what browser and version are you using?
Thanks.
No instance deployed (however I can (and had) deployed compute engine VM instances)
I have a 404 in console :
POST https://console.developers.google.com/m/deploy?pid=1090158225078&cmd=custom…ion=europe-west1&app=hadoop&xsrf=R5Ezthkrr1L8xU1STye3sXUiHiA:1414055456964 404 (Not Found)
on Chrome, Windows7
I tried on Firefox too : no 404 in console but same effect : no deployment at all.
The "customdeploy" command should not be returning a 404, so let's check if there's something going on with your Cloud project.
Click to Deploy uses the preview version of Deployment Manager on the backend. Let's check the objects (if any) that Deployment Manager has created for the Hadoop deployment.
To do this, you will need to:
Install the Google Cloud SDK (if you have not already)
Add the preview component
Query for Deployment Manager templates
Query for Deployment Manager deployments
Install the Google Cloud SDK:
Instructions are here: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/
Add the preview component:
gcloud components update preview
Query for Deployment Manager templates
gcloud preview --project=<projectid> deployment-manager templates list
Query for Deployment Manager deployments
gcloud preview --project=<projectid> deployment-manager deployments --region europe-west1 list
One last question. Is this a relatively "new" or "old" Google Cloud project? Sometimes old projects need a feature to be enabled that is automatically enabled on new projects.
Thanks.
